Magic: The Gathering (MTG) - the first trading card game produced and created in 1993 has spread from coast to coast, selling billions of cards and gone through numerous expansions. Since 28 April, players can officially planeswalk from Kaladesh to Amonkhet – MTG’s latest addition (74th Magic expansion).

Traversing from a world of invention, technology and energy to the opulent world of mummies, sphinxes, desert and the might and majesty of the God-Pharaoh. While that may sound like moving backwards in style, I for one welcomes the introduction of this Egyptian-inspired fantasy land.

The residents of Amonkhet are prepared both in life and in afterlife. With Death as a prominent theme in this set, the new mechanics likeEmbalm, Aftermath and Cyclingare center around putting the graveyard in the spotlight. To stand tall against the five trials of the Gods and prove your worth, IGN SEA is proud to collaborate with Magic the Gathering in presenting to you the inaugural IGN EXCLUSIVE MAGIC LEAGUE EVENT.
